Regional Specialties Aside from superstition and eccentricities involved in the preparation of food there is also a notion that we call regional specialties or home grown food. Each country is known for one kind of food and that food is called a specialty. The U.S. is known for hamburgers and fries, the UK is known for tea, Italian's are known for pasta. Making barbecue dishes can be downright messy and sooty especially if what you are using is the traditional charcoal-type grills that are quite common during parties. If you cannot stand the heat of the grill and would like to stay a good distance away while still cooking, you should buy some long-handled cooking utensils that are especially made for people who do grilling all the time. The person can buy a full or a half rack at the market depending on the number of people who fill be joining the meal. The right barbecue sauce should also be purchased or prepared before having this cooked in the grill. The grill must be in medium heat before the ribs can be placed into the fire. This will make it easy to turn the heat to high when the meat starts cooking in the grill. Do not do anything without consulting the manufacturers or the storeowner. Tinkering with power supplies can be really dangerous. 4. How do you clean a barbecue pit? Barbecue pits are used to cook food. This is why it is important for people to keep it clean all the time. Although it is not necessary to clean it every time you use it, it is good to have a schedule. Grills are used to cook the meat. It has a heat source, which can either be gas, electric or charcoal; a cooking grate; and of course a body that holds it together. The most basic grill of course is the one that uses charcoal.

In every part of the world there are people that cook out every weekend and enjoy a nice family get together. Most of these families have barbeques or trailer park barbeque cook outs. Some of these are more intimate and private but there are places in the world that have it like a tourist attraction or a public party.
